Social Networks on the Cloud
Yesterday at noon....
![Page 3: Social Networks on the Cloud Evimaria Terzi Boston University.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062322/56649ea45503460f94ba8f36/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Social Networks on the Cloud?
...at midnight....

We are all (together) on the cloud
Could that be more social?
Everything you tweet, facebook, linkedin to ....and pretty much everything we do is connected to the cloud...and seems to be working

We are all (together) on the cloud
Could that be more social?
Everything you tweet, facebook, linkedin to ....and pretty much everything we do is connected to the cloud and seems to be working.
So, are we done?

Where I am coming from
The world of “simple” problems... (as in simply stated)
Which are the “central” nodes in a social network? Whom should I follow on Twitter? Which blogs should I read? Which scientists are central figures in a domain?

Where I am coming from
The world of “simple” problems... (as in simply stated)
What is my centrality in a social network? How central am I on Facebook? How central am I in the scientific community?

Centrality
Definition: number of information pathways controlled by the
nodes
Computation: Intensive computational task Enumerating information pathways is demanding
![Page 9: Social Networks on the Cloud Evimaria Terzi Boston University.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062322/56649ea45503460f94ba8f36/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Challenges in centrality computations
Centrality of nodes and groups of nodes
Context-based centrality
Centrality of nodes in dynamic graphs

Benefits from centrality computations
Imagine if... you knew (and could monitor) your centrality score you knew (and could monitor) your friends centrality score you could know the set of central nodes in a network
Benefits to: Individuals Businesses News agencies/political campaign designers Recruiting agencies....

Centrality and the Cloud
Centrality is computationally-intensive task; cloud can provide computational resources
Challenges: efficient execution of such queries number of (concurrent) users dataset sizes evolving graphs

Beyond centrality: New types of queries
Leverage cloud infrustructure to support social-network-specific queries
Centrality Community detection Trend identification

Going back to my simple world
How can we protect the privacy of social-network users? Anonymity,differential privacy, privacy
scores
Privacy issues on the cloud All our data is on the cloud All our queries are asked to the cloud Cloud knows everything

Privacy-preserving data management on the cloud
How can we protect the privacy of social-network users? Anonymity,differential privacy, privacy scores
Privacy issues on the cloud All our data is on the cloud All our queries are asked to the cloud Cloud knows everything
Opportunities for privacy-preserving data management research

Summary
Social networks are on the cloud
Unresolved issues Leverage the cloud to add more functionalities to
social networks (i.e., facilitate new types of queries) Protect the privacy of individuals
Unresolved issues are good for a relationship and for researchers

One last perspective
Cloud provides computing power
Social networks have hidden man power
How about human computations?
